How It Happened
READING, Pa. – In a wild opening game of a doubleheader with MAC Commonwealth foe Alvernia, Lebanon Valley suffered a 17-12 setback on Saturday afternoon.
 
The Flying Dutchmen began the game on fire, plating an impressive eight runs after batting around in the top of the first. Josh Marcelli's single to left began the scoring, followed by Joey Wrabel's walk with the bases loaded. Ethan Hurd then hit a two-RBI single to center field, followed by Michael Leri's double to left center to make it 5-0. Luke Blair then doubled home Leri, followed by Bryan Towers' second hit of the inning, this time a triple to left that scored Blair. Josh Herring's RBI-single then knocked out Golden Wolves' starting pitcher Zack Landy.
 
Alvernia answered with three runs in the bottom of the first, followed by three more in the bottom of the second to come to within two of LVC at 8-6. In the top of the third, the Dutchmen's offense continued to click as Hurd scored on a balk, followed by a Leri run via a wild pitch. Herring then reached on a fielding error to increase LVC's advantage to 11-6. The Golden Wolves continued to hang around, though, and posted three runs in the bottom of the fourth to make the score 11-9.
 
In the bottom of the fifth, Alvernia took the lead with two runs, but Wrabel homered in the top of the sixth to even the game at 12-12. The Dutchmen couldn't hold off the Golden Wolves' potent offense, however, as the home team scored five times in the bottom of the sixth and held on in the top of the seventh for the wild 17-12 win.
